A good father
From leadership expert Jim Citrin's new column at Yahoo! Finance... "Just about everything we do in both our personal and professional lives is dependent on other people. And how you interact with those people has a direct effect. Even such seemingly "non-relationship" things as learning from a teacher in school or getting a ticket from a police officer are directly affected by your relationship skills."

Police in Uganda Investigate Front Page Micro Finance and Three Other Microfinance Firms
Ugandan Police are investigating four savings and co-operative credit organisations (SACCOs) suspected of fraud. They are alleged to be cheating their clients and making withdrawal of deposit money very difficult. The organisations are Front Page Micro Finance, Faster Micro Finance, Savings and Credit Cooperative Society Support Uganda Finance Limited and Stade Rugando Finance, all based in Kampala. According to the police up to 50 people have made complaints against the firms, accusing them of refusing to fulfill withdrawal requests completely and offering high-value loans against low-value collateral.

APPLYING FOR A BUSINESS LOAN: PUTTING YOUR BEST FOOT FORWARD
Some tips on how to prepare properly before sitting down with a loan officer at the bank. Understanding what criteria the loan officer will be looking for.

Doing Unto Others
By reaching out to others, helping, caring, and giving of yourself freely without any thought of personal gain, you will become a better and much happier person-and your impact will be felt forever. Like the ripple made when you cast a stone into water, the ripple effect you create by helping others is immeasurable. If you don't know how to do this on a large scale, do it on a small one. I know a man who is a full-time truant officer for a small town north of Denver, and also a member of an Optimist Club. As a truant officer, he found that some children failed to attend school because they were trading days with their siblings-there was only one pair of shoes among them.

The Van Gogh Syndrome can kill your business
If you consider yourself a professional, technical expert or artist, learn from the mistakes of Van Gogh - quickly - if you want to grow your business. When I research and work with these folks I often find that their business is suffering because they are reluctant and uniformed in marketing their business. They mistakenly believe that being good at their craft is enough. Poor fools.

Successful Business Plans
If you are the Chief Executive Officer, what must you have in place for business plans to work?

Take Decision Making Seriously
In a crisis we may have to make imprudent decisions quickly or “from the gut”. But, the majority of our lives are not spent in crisis and we shouldn’t make quick, uniformed, poorly thought through decisions.

Is Your CFO REALLY a Chief Financial Officer
No offense to all those dedicated, competent, excellent performing CFO’s out there but I have to admit that I run into a number of individuals in business that hold the respectable title of CFO (Chief Financial Officer) that shouldn’t be the Chief of anything. Oh, some of these CFO impersonators do a good job as an accountant and some may even qualify as a Controller. But, there are some that just shouldn’t hold the title of Chief Financial Officer. “The chief financial officer (CFO) is a corporate officer primarily responsible for managing the financial risks of the corporation. This officer is also responsible for financial planning and record-keeping, as well as financial reporting to higher management. The CFO is also responsible for analysis of data”. So…… ask yourself; is your CFO really a Chief Financial Officer.

Title Inflation Emerges With A Vengeance
Suddenly, title inflation is everywhere. I’ve seen more business cards or email sigs lately with adjectives like “executive” or “senior” or “senior executive” or “special” or “chief” in front of more traditional titles (e.g. “vice president”). The “chief” one is especially bizarre since it’s not always obvious whether the CSO is a “Chief Sales Officer” or a “Chief Security Officer” which in and of itself is a problem.

Do Planes Have Horns?
In the not so distant past, my niece’s four-year old son, Hollis, was getting on a plane. Hollis is a frequent traveler. As usual, the energetic four-year old ran down the gangway in excitement. He just about ran into the captain’s legs at the entrance to the plane. As he looked up at the uniformed woman, Hollis asked, “Do planes have horns?”
